Iceland is an island nation of 340,000 people in northern Europe, between the Greenland Sea and the North Atlantic Ocean, northwest of the United Kingdom, its northern edge situated just south of the Arctic Circle.
 
The second largest island in the North-Atlantic Ocean, is entirely volcanic (being located on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and being pulled apart at the rate of one centimeter per year) and composed of basaltic rock. Weather is usually cold and wet, and blanket bogs are common. The surface is only partly covered with vegetation, the rest being bare rock, snow, and glaciers. The interior of the country is largely arctic desert, with mountains, glaciers, volcanoes and waterfalls.
 
Its major environmental issues include: water pollution from fertilizer runoff; and, inadequate wastewater treatment.
 
Water
Total Renewable Water Resources: 170 cu km (2005)
Freshwater Withdrawal: 0.17 cu km/yr (34%/66%/0%)   (34% domestic, 66% industrial, 0% agricultural)
Per Capita Freshwater Withdrawal: 567 cu m/yr (2003)
 

The World Bank reports that at least 80 countries have water shortages and 2 billion people lack access to clean water. More disturbingly, the World Health Organization has reported that 1 billion people lack enough water to simply meet their basic needs, unfortunately in many countries water is scarce or contaminated.
